Welcome to the newly renovated Blue Crane restaurant and bar.
(1148)

Established in April 1997, and taken over by new owners in May 2014, the Blue Crane Restaurant and Bar is located on the waterfront of one of the lakes of the beautiful Austin Roberts Bird Sanctuary in the heart of Pretoria. Its winning combination of fine food, friendly service and value for money mean that it's the ideal place for a memorable dining experience. The Blue Crane Restaurant and Bar offers a variety of pleasing dining venues, alongside the lake of the Austin Roberts Bird Sanctuary. Whether it be the open-air freedom of the upper decks and the brand new 'boma' or the surroundings of the newly renovated upstairs bar, we have the right venue to cater for your individual taste.
